Design for safety framework for offshore oil and gas platforms
Offshore platform installation is associated with several inherent risks arising from majorcritical safety challenges such as fires, explosions, blowouts, falling objects, earthquake, extreme weather,and impact from moving objects such as helicopters or ships. These critical problems are due largely to designerrors or inadequacies, and poor maintenance. The safety challenges highlig...
متن کاملEvaluating alternatives for decommissioning California's offshore oil and gas platforms.
This paper introduces a series of 6 additional papers in this issue that describe an in-depth analysis of options for decommissioning oil and gas platforms offshore southern California. Although current leases require lessees in both state and federal waters to completely remove all production facilities and restore the seafloor to its pre-platform condition, other options have emerged since th...
متن کاملWhat can wave energy learn from offshore oil and gas?
This title may appear rather presumptuous in the light of the progress made by the leading wave energy devices. However, there may still be some useful lessons to be learnt from current 'offshore' practice, and there are certainly some awful warnings from the past. Wave energy devices and the marine structures used in oil and gas exploration as well as production share a common environment and ...
متن کاملA multi-attribute decision analysis for decommissioning offshore oil and gas platforms.
The 27 oil and gas platforms off the coast of southern California are reaching the end of their economic lives. Because their decommissioning involves large costs and potential environmental impacts, this became an issue of public controversy. As part of a larger policy analysis conducted for the State of California, we implemented a decision analysis as a software tool (PLATFORM) to clarify an...
متن کاملEmissions of methane from offshore oil and gas platforms in Southeast Asia
Methane is a substantial contributor to climate change. It also contributes to maintaining the background levels of tropospheric ozone. Among a variety of CH4 sources, current estimates suggest that CH4 emissions from oil and gas processes account for approximately 20% of worldwide anthropogenic emissions. Here, we report on observational evidence of CH4 emissions from offshore oil and gas plat...
